The study is online. People have to choose a song by the Beatles and describe the memories that they have when they listen to it.Reminiscence bumpMorrison explained that they looked at different age groups and their memories. We often remember more from when we are teenagers and this is called “the reminiscence bump”. This is the time in your life when you form your idea of who you are. For older people who have memories related to the Beatles music, most of those memories are from when they were teenagers. But younger people also had clear personal memories from their past.She loves youThis study was different from other memory studies, because people remembered events from their past with lots more details. Morrison explained: “It was like people had travelled back to the past, and they had very clear memories of things that had happened. When they heard a song like She Loves You by the Beatles, they could remember one night in autumn 1963.They remembered what they were wearing, what the weather was like and what their friend said to them. You get a lot more information than if you just say, tell me about a night you remember. ”The study has found that music could be used with people who have problems remembering the past. “You could use music to help improve peoples ability to remember,” said Morrison. “In the future, we would like to do more experiments to see how useful music is in helping people to remember the past, and compare it to other things that might also help.”（1）Professor Conway and Dr. Morrisons research aims to _. A . see how music can help people remember the pastB . study old songs influence on peoples behaviorC . find out what influences peoples memories of the pastD . find ways to help people with memory difficulties（2）The example of She Loves You is used to show that _. A . love songs can help people to have clearer memoriesB . songs tell stories that are similar to our experiencesC . music can take people back to their teenage yearsD . people can remember more details with the help of music（3）Morrisons teams future research is probably on _. A . why some people have memory problemsB . what methods can best help people bring back memoriesC . how music can help people in their studies or workD . how to help older people remember more details about the past4. （5分）Fill in the blanks according to the passage. Only one word for each blank.A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasnt built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.Even so, traveling isnt that difficult. The waterway has always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that connect one river with another and can also guide you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery and cool summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along the river.Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences. One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge, and theres nothing special. But when they come back to the bridge an hour later, its underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is that the temperature has risen over the years. This has made ice of the Arctic Ocean（北冰洋）melt（融化）.Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower. The Italian government has asked some of Italys biggest companies to build the MOST project, which was planned to be built under the seawater to stop the rising water. Anyway, this project is helping solve the problem.Venice lies in the northeast of Italy. You cant_cars in this strange city.
